Dear Jo: 9/1/2021

Dear Jo,

I have a business idea. It, in my opinion, is a great one! I love to garden and know that chickens can help control pests and fertilize at the same time. If I could bring pet chickens to peoples gardens, for a fee, gardens would benefit from the instant pest control and fertilizing. The hiccup in this plan is my sister. She hates chickens and believes this is a ridiculous idea. Do I go ahead with my idea? Will people make fun of it?

Signed, No crappy idea

Dear Crappy,

If you believe in your idea, why are you letting ANYONE sabotage it? Go spread your chicken poop wherever it is needed! The world needs more fearless women running with new ideas, or chickens as it is…..

Signed, Jo

Dear Jo,

How do you tell someone that they are putting their proverbial head in the sand? I am so frustrated! How can someone not see that the past is doomed to repeat itself if you do not acknowledge it and set you mind on changing your behavior patterns for better? Is it too much to ask that someone listen to reason?! Argh!! (That is me screaming, literally).

Signed,

About to combust

Dear Combusting,

BREATHE! First, you can only control your own behavior and emotions. Second, well, that’s it really. Now go get a massage or meditate!

Signed, Jo
